Ingredients
- 500 g beef ribeye or sirloin, thinly sliced
- 60 ml low-sodium soy sauce
- 30 ml sesame oil
- 20 g granulated erythritol
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, grated
- 4 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tbsp butter or avocado oil
- 8 lettuce leaves, for serving
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, granulated erythritol, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well to ensure the erythritol is dissolved fully.
Step 2
Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours for more intense flavor.
Step 3
Heat the butter or avocado oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Once the oil is hot, add the marinated beef slices to the pan. Do not overcrowd the pan; you may need to cook the beef in batches.
Step 5
Stir-fry the beef until it's cooked through and nicely browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step 6
Once cooked, remove from the heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Step 7
To serve, place a spoonful of Bulgogi into a lettuce leaf and roll it up. Enjoy immediately for a fresh and delicious Keto meal.
